Hi everyone
Prior to returning this to the retailer I'll check here.

It's a new Thunnus 4000.
Problem is resistance in a small part of each crank of the handle and makes a click noise.

Feels as though the spool is crooked but can't see how it would be.

Any ideas?

Ok I think it best for you to send it back to your retailer for a warranty claim, dont' go looking inside as this will invalidate your warranty, could be many things causing this issue, up to you of course. I cant stop DIY , cheers swordfishsteve

As above.
 At a guess I would say that the gear and main cog are not aligned up exactly right ...
There is a dot on the gear edge that needs to be lined up .. to the exact position.. 1 tooth out and you will feel it.
 Using like that and the smoothness of the wind will disappear..
